Actual Window Menu is a suite of the most popular innovative programs which allows users to operate windows on the desktop in some advanced ways: alternatively minimize to Windows notification area (system tray) or to a floating icon on the screen, alter the execution priority of Windows processes on-the-fly, apply semi-transparency effect, roll up/unroll, resize, align, easily move windows between different displays in a multiple display environment, etc.
Installation, as well as the use of the program, is extremely easy and does not require much time. After installation, the application embeds its extra commands into each window's system menu. These new commands are as easy to use as common Move/Size/Minimize/Close ones, and they significantly enhance windows management abilities.
The set of commands can be customized for particular applications so that you can select just features which are really necessary there and, thus, form a convenient and flexible working environment. Actual Window Menu is irreplaceable when you have to work with numerous applications at once switching from one to another, which is very annoying and frustrating.
Moreover, it becomes quite difficult to distinguish between minimized programs as they get the taskbar piled up. Actual Window Menu enables you to forget that chaos and proceed with your work not being disturbed by windows mess on the desktop.
Actual Window Menu is a complex application that provides advanced users with alternative ways of organizing and managing windows.

What's New in This Release:
· Global system hooks are replaced with the hooks local for each process. This should fix some known compatibility problems (e.g. with Lotus Notes, Adobe Acrobat) and also improve the overall stability.
· List of hotkey actions can be filtered by hotkey category (System, Mouse, Custom, etc.).
· Hotkeys now work in applications (mostly, video games) that use DirectInput to provide keyboard/mouse control (e.g. Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, Battlefield 3, etc.).
· Classic snapping now ignores the 100%-transparent (i.e. invisible) windows.
· Windows 7: If Internet Explorer is already open, launching a new instance of it opened an unwanted extra window.
· Moving a window between monitors via Monitor Selector dialog made the Move to Monitor title button's tool tip incorrect.
· Windows x64: In some cases, scrolling a window with the "Scrolling inactive windows" feature beyond the bottom made the scroller bounce at the end of scrollbar.
